Baby Banz Swim Goggles: Essential eye protection goes underwater

Baby Banz Swim Goggles: Essential eye protection goes underwater
If you're a longtime Cool Mom Picks reader, then you already know Baby Banz as the quintessential purveyor of eye protection for little ones in the sun--plus we were excited when they started making Baby Banz sun protection beachwear. But now, right in time for winter swim lessons, we're happy to learn they've branched out into swim goggles. And right when it's nearly impossible to find goggles in the store. They've got the 100% UV protection we'd expect from Baby Banz plus they're anti-fog, but it's more than that. Unlike adult goggles in miniature for kids, these ones are actually made with little kids' comfort in mind. The one-piece strap is soft and wide for a secure fit, and the silicone eye cups are cushy and comfy on little faces. They're fully adjustable, too--they'll fit a toddler, but they also fit my tweens. The icing on the cake is the sturdy polycarb case, making digging for goggles at the bottom of the beach bag a thing of the past. Man, what I wouldn't give for a little beach weather right about now. Get Banz Swim Goggles directly from Baby Banz.
